After a day of busy work, including sea fishing and manual picking, the collection of scallops is finally almost done. There are piles of scallops left on the beach. As long as there is enough water vapor, their lives are not in danger and they live well here. .
Qin Shiou came over chewing gum, watching the sunset and these mother-of-pearls, and planning tomorrow's work.
The sunset light falls gently, the weather in early spring is still a bit chilly, the evening wind is still a bit cold on people's faces, tigers, leopards, bears, wolves and other guys are chasing each other on the beach.
Loli Xiong stared at the scallops curiously, and then when no one was paying attention, she carefully walked up and smashed a few scallops, opened her mouth and licked them with her pink and tender tongue.
The delicious taste of the scallops quickly conquered its taste buds, and Loli Bear was very happy. She opened her fat paws and slapped the scallops, licking the meat and swallowing the shells together.
Noticing this, the silent Ivoson immediately rushed up, picked up Loli Bear and dragged it back.
Loli Bear howled unwillingly, Big Bear heard it and roared, displaying the majesty of the king of the forest. Unfortunately, when he turned around and saw that it was Iwosen holding Loli Bear, he immediately became frustrated and sat there in a daze. .
¡°Obviously, Ivoson left such a deep impression on Xiong Da when he was a boy that he still has lingering fears.
The seals are also eyeing the scallops. Since they have no claws and only have fin-like limbs, they cannot dig shellfish in the sand by themselves. Of course, there were short-tailed shearwaters and herring gulls in the previous fishing ground, and the seals also Didn't bother eating scallops.
Now that the short-tailed shearwaters have left and the herring gulls have been driven away, the seals have to choose food alternatives.
There is no doubt that for them, capelin, herring and mackerel taste better, but there is no action to catch fish, but scallops are piled up here. In this way, scallops seem to be a good food for seals who can be as lazy as possible and beep as quietly as possible.
Qin Shiou saw that this was not going to work. A group of guys were staring at the scallops. To put it another way, there were hundreds of thousands of scallops in the mother body. It was nothing to eat, but the seals were also eyeing them, which would be troublesome. Not only are there many seals, but all of them are big eaters!
So, he could only instruct the fishermen to eat a little tired overnight and send these shells to the engineered breeding pond.
The next day will be about the frying of bay scallops.
Bay scallop seed production is one of the leading shellfish industries along the Atlantic coast. After years of improvements, nursery technology has been greatly improved. However, there are still many fisheries that cannot obtain enough scallop larvae every year because the hatch rate is too low. , thus directly leading to the failure of seedling breeding.
Therefore, improving the hatchability of bay scallops is one of the key technologies for nursery production. Qin Shiou not only needs to input Poseidon energy into them, but also try to adopt more scientific breeding methods and cannot rely solely on Poseidon energy.
The fishermen all went into battle. Shaq, Sea Monster, Bull, and Smoker each led a team of ten people to select the mother shells separately and put them into different breeding rafts according to the quality of the mother shells.
The last mother oyster is the kind of bay scallop with full gonads, large individual and complete appearance. It is sorted and selected and put into different breeding ponds. The water temperature and oxygen content in the water are adjusted to temporarily maintain the mother oyster.
The cultivation of female oysters is the basis. They are hermaphrodites, and their breeding habits are in vitro fertilization and in vitro development. They usually lay eggs and reproduce in spring and autumn. It is obvious that the maturity of the gonad development of female oysters directly affects the quality of eggs.
In fact, Daqin Fishing Ground is not the most suitable place for cultivating sea scallops. Take this kind of scallops, which can be harvested two seasons a year in the South Atlantic waters, including the Gulf of Mexico, but can only be raised one season here.
Of course, every loss has its own gain. Compared with scallops from southern tropical waters, bay scallops produced in the North Atlantic, especially Newfoundland fisheries, are of better quality, have lower pollution levels, and can be sold at higher prices.
Because it has entered the seed breeding season for various marine products, Sanders rushed back from the No. 2 Fishing Ground to provide guidance. He took Qin Shiou to watch the scallops on the breeding raft one by one.
After seeing it, the old professor was a little depressed and said: "The quality of the fish from the fishery is good."
Qin Shiou thinks that the latter name is more appropriate, but Sanders is an academic after all, so the wording is more precise. After hearing this, he felt that he would also be called Qinbei in the future, which would be more appropriate.
As for the old professor's depression, he could understand it. In fact, although the old man was a genius, he was not very useful in the fishing grounds. He finally had a black-capped giant worm project, but it was stopped by Qin Shiou because of lack of raw materials. That was his last project. Regrettably.
?Hearing what the old professor said, Qin Shiou grinned and said: "These scallops are high-quality scallops that I imported from other fishing grounds. Of course the quality is good, but I don't want them if they are not good."
There are currently two main scallops commonly used in major fishing grounds in Canada, the American Gulf scallop and the Gulf of Mexico scallop. Both types of scallops have their own advantages and disadvantages, but they all have a common problem, which is the decline in quality.
The reasons for this are, first, the degradation of the mussel¡¯s germplasm; the second, the pollution of the breeding environment; the third, operational management, breeding density, etc.; and the fourth, breeding issues.
Two kinds of bay scallops have been cultivated in North America for more than half a century. The Gulf scallop was introduced from Mexico. Due to the unstable political power of the country at the time, the number of introductions in the two countries was limited. Moreover, it reproduces one generation every six months. , so after more than half a century of artificial breeding, it is inevitable that inbreeding will occur.
¡°Just like people, the quality of children born from incest marriages is difficult to guarantee. Over time, the breeding characteristics of shellfish will deteriorate. Sanders initially thought that the fishery would encounter this problem, and he wanted to solve this problem to show his strength.
As a result, the strong mother oysters didn¡¯t give him a chance!
After seeing the quality of the scallops, Sanders suggested that Qin Shiou should not engage in primitive breeding and start a seedling cultivation business. This is more profitable than primitive breeding because it makes money quickly, instead of raising fish, shrimp and scallops. It takes years or even years to produce output.
Canada¡¯s scallop industry is currently experiencing a crisis of quality decline. There are two ways to solve this crisis. One is to re-introduce original Gulf scallops from the United States and Mexico and carry out reproduction, which is more expensive.
Another way is to select high-quality seed oysters to cultivate and reproduce by yourself. This is cheap, but it is not easy to operate and has a long cycle. It is like manually selecting high-quality varieties. You have to go through several rounds of screening and mating, and the results can be obtained only after repeated comparisons.
Qin Shiou thought about it and realized that this was also a good idea for development. He would use Poseidon consciousness to transform the mother body so that the fry, shrimp and shellfish produced would be of high quality. This would also be considered as maximizing the use of golden fingers to contribute to marine life. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
